How Many Holes Does A Straw Have?

I got the idea from a caller on the Kidd Kraddick morning show this week, not knowing that the debate had been going on forever. Raging from the pages of reddit, to prize winning mathematicians from all over the world. You could apparently do an entire college theseus paper about the subject.

The answer from the math, is just one hole, but by that definition our body has a few less holes that originally thought. So that leads to another theory, that there are no holes in a functioning straw. The debate got pretty heated, even if most people were tired of the question. This is going to be like what come first the chicken or the egg, a mystery for the ages. See what all my Facebook friends had to say on the subject.

So you want to tell me what you tell me your thoughts on the issue. If this is the hardest question you ever have to answer, luckily it won't be life or death.
